The AVMA is at it again. After passing an anti-raw pet food resolution last fall, tomorrow they plan to slip an anti-homeopathy resolution under the door and make it "law."

Story at-a-glance
It seems the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) is on a fast track to kill off the practice of complementary/alternative/holistic veterinary medicine.
Fast on the heels of their recent anti-raw pet food position statement, they are now about to jam through a similar resolution discouraging the practice of homeopathy for pets.
The anti-homeopathy resolution is especially peculiar, since it arrived at the AVMA through a procedural back door and is based solely on an anonymously authored 32-page white paper that displays the stunning bias of the writer along with an abundance of misinformation.
If you would like not only veterinary homeopathy, but all alternative veterinary therapies to remain available for your pet, we encourage you to contact the AVMA immediately and voice your concerns about this latest resolution, and an overall trend we are seeing toward discouraging the practice of all types of holistic veterinary medicine.

They are waging a similar onslaught against organic foods with "news reports" that organic foods have no more vitamins or minerals than regular foods totally ignoring the effects on people of consuming pesticides, herbicides, etc on plant foods and growth hormones, etc on livestock, chickens, etc

People need to wake up and realize "big business" is busy whittling away at our rights day by day, down to what we can feed our dogs and how we can treat their ailments.

Big business needs to use these monies to research why more and more of our children are developing autism. How about food allergies in children?:

So many of the common sense practices of old are being erased. It is insidious!
It is not the Medical practitioner that push this nonsense but the boards that represent them , what purpose would it be to eliminate this practice but to eliminate the competition. OF all the groups to suggest this -Doctors- I am beginning to understand now what the Dark Age was about!
I am constantly having some of my best tools being regulated out to only replaced by something much more expensive and never equal always less. This trend is everywhere and not slowing!
